Severity: Minor. Certainty: Likely.
* WHAT...East winds increasing to near 20 knots.

* WHERE...Straits of Florida.

* WHEN...In Effect.

* IMPACTS...A Small Craft Advisory means that wind speeds of 20
to 33 knots, or seas of 7 feet or greater, are expected to
produce hazardous conditions for small craft. These hazardous
conditions may result in poor vessel handling and steering
response, broaching, overturned dinghies and kayaks, slips and
falls on slippery decks, rub damage along docks and seawalls,
swamped bows at reef tract mooring balls, and dragging anchors.
